ok, so i'm up and ready to get on this for a bit.

there's clearly somebody smoking upstairs, right now, so i'm going to have to turn the fan back on for the night. i thought i was feeling better, but it's got me hacking again.

i'm wondering if that's actually what happened, if his smoking upstairs triggered my bronchitis. there's a reason i don't smoke inside: my mom severely damaged my lungs when i was a kid. i had a puffer for years. there were times when the teacher asked me to sit outside. it's a serious, longstanding problem, and it's worse in the winter. i really, really can't be around indoor smoking or indoor smokers, as a result of the severe damage my mother did to me when i was a child.

the way this is going to work is that i'm going to disconnect from the internet now and stay offline until i get the liner notes done for the november/13 releases. i'll hop back on for a bit after that.

i don't know how long i'll be up for, but, for the next few days at least, i'm not at all interested in trying to figure this out. i will just reimage immediately after. the first reboot. i need to get through this.

so, that's task #1....
